Most of our customers buy the soft enamel style of pin. Your art may require a smaller or larger pin. Price breaks are at every .25". Recently we launched an online store for pins.
Our enamel pin factory ships most orders in under three weeks. Rush order requests are welcome but we can't ship any order in less than 10 working days. There are a couple of seasonal events which affect your ability to get pins in less than 4-6 weeks. (ie- Chinese Lunar New Year)
We import our pins from a trusted partner in China. Our family owned and operated a lapel pin factory in Alberta, Canada for 30 years which ceased operation in 2002. We work with an importer who has offices in Canada and USA offering us legal protection and the ability to rate our factory on a distributors site. We have a video that shows you the pitfalls of going China direct. [hint: we remove all that risk and hassle for you!]
We ask for vector art created by a program like Adobe Illustrator if possible. We can work with Procreate designs. Otherwise we can work with any format your desire. For quoting purposes you can send us a JPG or PNG. We will vectorize any artwork free of charge. Alternatively we can design the pin for you, free of charge. We've been in this business since 1971, so we'll make sure your custom enamel pin design looks awesome as an enamel pin. Did you know we have the best enamel pin design blog ? Visit enamelpin.info
